Little Zoies Steps

We went to Laguna for a little family reunion with the Ong family, my in-laws.  We rented a private pool for the weekend holiday, over night.  Everyone had fun especially my little kiddo, too bad she got no playmate her age.  Anyway, here’s the story.

Nobody was able to took a photo of what actually happened but let me say to you… Little Zoie did slide down on this high slide all by herself!!!  >_<

She’s a brave girl alright!  Even I can’t do it, I have fear of heights, you know. ;-p

One of her aunt, my sister-in-law, Tita CM, accompany her as she climb up the ladder of the slide.  But Little Zoie was all by herself when she sat down and got ready to slide, no worries because hubby was waiting at the foot of the slide.  As soon as Little Zoie took the slide, you can see that she’s not afraid at first, but when she reached the middle part of the slide, she went sliding down fast because it was slippery.  I noticed that her expression changed from happy and excited to scared.  Not to mention hubby just let her go down deep the water first before he got her and embraced her.  I was at the other end of the pool but I can hear her little sobs and telling her dad that he didn’t catch her soon.

Hubby told her that it was alright because he got her.  With a little more assurance that she’s okay and did a good, brave, job my Little Zoie was smiling again.  She was proud of herself!  Well, I am… I don’t have the guts to conquer my fear of heights and try different things.  As she was asked and teased to slide down again, because not all saw her do her little stunt especially her grandparents, she said, as hubby whispered to her ear, ‘later!’  ^_^
